Anyone got any info on this two featherbacks, C. hypselonotus and C. borneensis? Saw them listed in fishbase.
Chitala hypselonotus and Chitala borneensis

Only known pics of Indonesian knifefish and it's only a sketch. Crap!!! However it just gives an idea on what it looks likes. They say max size is 40cm.
Checked out google pics only to find distribution mapping, sketches, and a motley of pics representing the Giant Featherback, the Clown Knife, Chitala Chitala, and Chitala Blanci.
Call this crazy, but maybe some MFKers should consider conducting a verification trip with regards to the two species.

Can't say I know anything about these guys, but they would definitely be of interest for the Knife Nuts to actually see both species...at least a real picture of them

I actually want to see some real pics too that's why I'm stopping over in Indonesia if they have some collected specimen even in a jar, in a fish market or whatever sources.
Right now they are both the holy grail of featherbacks. Second os the Indian Clown knifefish (chitala chitala).
